Molecular modulation of calcium oxalate crystallization.
Calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM) is the primary constituent of the majority of renal stones. Osteopontin (OPN), an aspartic acid-rich urinary protein, and citrate, a much smaller molecule, are potent inhibitors of COM crystallization at levels present in normal urine. Current concepts of the role of site-specific interactions in crystallization derived from studies of biomineralization are rev...
متن کاملEffect of High Osmotic Pressure Milk Formula on Renal Calcium Oxalate Crystallization Induced by Calcium Oxalate
To study the effect of high osmotic pressure milk formula on renal calcium oxalate crystallization induced by calcium oxalate. 40 SD rats were randomly divided into four groups: NC, MC, LOM and HOM group. For model preparation, MC, LOM and HOM were treated with 1% Ethanediol in the water combined with 2% ammonium chloride (2ml/day) intragastrically administration. The rats in LOM and HOM were i...
متن کاملMolecular modulation of calcium oxalate crystallization by osteopontin and citrate.
Calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM), which plays a functional role in plant physiology, is a source of chronic human disease, forming the major inorganic component of kidney stones. Understanding molecular mechanisms of biological control over COM crystallization is central to development of effective stone disease therapies and can help define general strategies for synthesizing biologically ins...
متن کاملCalcium oxalate crystallization kinetics studied by oxalate-induced turbidity in fresh human urine and artificial urine.
We have studied the kinetics of oxalate-induced turbidity in fresh human urine and artificial urine. Assays are performed in 96-well plates, which allows many oxalate concentrations to be studied, repeatedly, in a short time. The metastable limit is defined in terms of the lowest oxalate concentration that gives a rate of change of attenuance significantly greater than the control. Interpretati...
متن کاملReactive oxygen species, inflammation and calcium oxalate nephrolithiasis
Calcium oxalate (CaOx) kidney stones are formed attached to Randall's plaques (RPs) or Randall's plugs. Mechanisms involved in the formation and growth are poorly understood. It is our hypothesis that stone formation is a form of pathological biomineralization or ectopic calcification. Pathological calcification and plaque formation in the body is triggered by reactive oxygen species (ROS) and ...
